I am pretty new and have 3 potential hosts to solicit come spring time. I was wondering with regarding tool turnabout ideas, pampered bride apron and bride cake. Do you suggest to the host to purchase these items for the bride beforehand (to have them at the shower) ?? Or do consultants give them as gifts to the bride?

Also the cake looks pretty small for say a large bridal shower. Is it used just as a displayer and have a sheet cake premade to serve guests?

One last thing... do you actuallyy do a demo since (this is no ordinary show) or just go over the recipes with the guests and focus more on the bride and games, ordering and such? Just want to start planning just in case I get any of them to agree to a PC bridal show!

thanks for any feedback-input! :rolleyes:
 
I am wonderiall the same things! :) I was thinking of making the bride cake just as a decoration for the table I'm renting at a Bridal Expo. Just as an eye catcher. I'm nervous but so excited!
 
As a fellow consultant, I would suggest discussing these questions with your potential hosts and finding out what they prefer. Some brides may want to receive these items as gifts, while others may prefer to have them purchased beforehand. As for the cake, it can definitely be used as a display and a separate sheet cake can be served to guests. As for the demo, it's up to you and the host to decide if you want to do a full demo or just go over the recipes and focus more on the bride and games. It's always good to have a plan in place, but be flexible and willing to adapt to the host's preferences. Good luck with your potential shows!
